README Update Workflow

When To Use

Use this skill whenever the README requires a structural refresh. Run Skill(sanctum:git-workspace-review) first to capture repo context and diffs.

When NOT To Use

• Updating inline docs: use doc-updates
• Consolidating ephemeral reports: use doc-consolidation

Required TodoWrite Items

1. update-readme:language-audit
2. update-readme:exemplar-research
3. update-readme:outline-aligned
4. update-readme:edits-applied
5. update-readme:slop-scanned - AI marker detection via scribe
6. update-readme:verification-reporting

Step 1 - Language Audit (update-readme:language-audit)

• Confirm pwd, git status -sb, and the baseline branch for reference.
• Detect dominant languages using repository heuristics (manifest files, file counts).
• Note secondary languages that influence documentation (e.g., a TypeScript frontend and a Rust backend) so the README can surface both.
• Record the method and findings.

See modules/language-audit.md for detailed detection patterns and commands.

Step 2 - Exemplar Research (update-readme:exemplar-research)

• For each primary and secondary language, use web search to locate high-quality READMEs (star count, recency, maintainer activity).
• Capture 2-3 exemplar repositories per language and summarize why each is relevant (section order, visuals, quickstart clarity, governance messaging, math exposition, etc.).
• Store citations for every exemplar so the final summary references them explicitly.

See modules/exemplar-research.md for search query patterns and evaluation criteria.

Step 3 - Outline Alignment (update-readme:outline-aligned)

• Compare current README headings (rg -n '^#' README.md) against patterns observed in exemplars.
• Draft a target outline covering: value proposition, installation, quickstart, deeper usage/configuration, architecture/feature highlights, performance or math guarantees, documentation links, contribution/governance, roadmap/status, and licensing/security notes.
• validate internal documents (docs/, specs/, wiki, commands/) are mapped to the relevant sections so the README anchors them with context-sensitive links.
